Actually, the Post Office is the one government program which is self-supporting. Congress wants to change that, of course, and not by making any other programs self-supporting.
Look what has happened…. to Newspapers……… can’t blame either political party for that……….The USPS has done pretty well adjusting to the new reality…………..The strip today is both mean and funny….! ! !
I do see the problem with private mail service, some areas might cost 10 cents to deliver while others cost 5 dollars. That would be interesting to see rural areas not get mail service, bills or anything else…not be able to mail in tax payments and other stuff too. I also thought that there was a lot of private competition with other services. Then again I’m not an expert on mailing stuff by any means.

It may be self supporting but it isn’t doing a very good job of it. The internet has cut deeply into it’s livelihood.

If it is self supporting why does it need to be a monopoly for first class delivery??? Privatize the beast and let it face some competition.
